Screw Pumpkin Spice, Jennifer Lopez Is Wearing "Chai Latte Chic" Nails for Fall

Judging from her new manicure, Jennifer Lopez isn't heading to Starbucks for a PSL this season. Instead, she's looking for something a bit more subtle, but no less flavorful: "chai latte chic" nails, just in time for New York Fashion Week.

The jet-setting Lopez hopped a plane to New York for the shows, including an appearance at Coach, and her nails looked the part of a front-row mainstay thanks to her manicurist Tom Bachik. In keeping with the neutral, milky-hued manicures Lopez has been sporting for much of the year, Bachik skipped the deeper brown latte and caramel shades in favor of a dreamy, super-shiny cream color reminiscent of a warm, cozy mug of sweetly spicy chai. OK, yum?!?

According to Bachik's Instagram post, he used a combo of Aprés Gel Couleur in Sebastian's Spots, a dusty purple, and Chai Latte a taupe nude, to create the chai latte-inspired shade — which not-so-accidentally matched Lopez's shimmery taupe eye shadow. The singer and actor's nails were filed into long, soft squares for extra glam, which you definitely need when you're hopping from one high-profile NYFW event to another. (Those giant rings don't hurt either.)

This isn't the first time Lopez has looked to baristas for her beauty inspo. Earlier this summer, Lopez and makeup artist Mary Philips showed off their version of the trending latte makeup, which was practically created by and for Lopez. She and Bachik, too, have found color inspo at the coffee shop, including a set of rich, chocolately mocha nails. In late 2022, Lopez did mimic the ginger tones of a PSL with her delicious dulce de leche nails. Lopez does have one of the busiest schedules in the industry, so it makes sense that she'd have caffeine on the brain when getting her nails done. What's next: a Mint Mocha Frappuccino? Maybe for the holidays.
